Not much going on in the "40 Watt Garage"... but the "Skunkworks" (basement shop) is humming again.
When I'm not working on "Full-Scale" cars I build models. Been doing it since I was 5. This other hobby is my mental health/sanity checkvalve. To me, there's nothing more relaxing than putting an old movie in the DVD, and zoning out into "miniature land".
Over the last few years I've been building a tribute trilogy of the American Graffiti cars. Steve's '58 Impala, Milner's '32, and Falfa's '55.
I built the '58 & '32 between 2015 & 2017, and started on Falfa's '55... then this big semi-truck showed up in front of the house with my 1:1 "kit"!! Falfa's car got shelved.
I started back up on the '55 recently, but I thought y'all might be interested in seeing the other cars, and progress to date on the '55.
